emc.var values changing
I'm finding that when I zero one of my axes, the change is saved to my emc.var file, so my G92 coordinates are wrong the next time I start KMotionCNC. I haven't noticed that behavior in the past. Is there a setting that is causing KMotionCNC to alter the emc.var file? Is it because I have "Save alwa...

Re: Initialization program causing freeze
I think I found the issue-- at some point I accidentally changed the user button command from Exec Prog to Exec/Wait. Sorry to have wasted your time on this .

Initialization program causing freeze
I use the attached C program for initializing my CNC, and while it works most of the time is seems to occasionally cause the KFlop to freeze. The issue is with the forever loop starting at line 77 that I added a few years ago to control my laser (if I remove that loop it always works fine). I was wo...

Re: Flashing user memory not working?
Okay, thanks Tom. I guess I can just fix the soft limits that are in the Init program instead of trying to flash them.

Re: Flashing user memory not working?
I found that the initialization C program that K2CNC used for my machine has some references to soft limits (though the values don't seem to make any sense for my machine). Would this (attached) program override the soft limits that I flashed to the board?

Flashing user memory not working?
I'm trying to add soft limits to my machine, which is configured with the user settings flashed to the KFLOP. I don't seem to be successful, but I'm not sure if I'm missing a step. I've successfully changed and flashed settings in the past. After changing my soft limits, I downloaded them to KFLOP a...

Re: Change laser power based on feedrate?
This all worked out great. I'm changing the laser power every 10 mS based on the current feed rate, and it does wonders for smoothing laser engravings, and lets me increase my feed rates considerably. Thanks once again for your help!

Re: Change laser power based on feedrate?
I'm back to working on this a bit more now, and I'm starting by trying to add a forever loop to my K2_INIT Servo.c program that includes a non-blocking time delay, as you suggested. Right now it just sends an RS232 command (or prints a message) once per second. It works, but when I try to do anythin...
